Lyrics:
 I didn't mean to turn you on
 No way
 Just wanna dance and sing my song
 Oh, well, okay
 Clocking in, clocking out
 No I don't mind it at all
 Me and the danger dudes
 Were on the news
 So just don't bother to call
 Because

 It's just a way to stay alive, boy
 It's such a trip just to survive
 So it's back, back to Dungaree high
 Just to get by, back to Dungaree high
 Just a great big boy
 And a teeny-weeny alibi
 Just a soul on ice
 With a mirror and a blade
 And a pocket full of ice
 Cheap thrills done and the dirt cheap ants
 'Cause I got a headache in my pants
 Because

 It's just a way to stay alive, boy
 It's such a trip just to survive
 So it's back, back to Dungaree high
 Just a great big boy
 With a teeny-weeny alibi

 "Is that rock enough?"

 It's just a way to stay alive, boy
 It's such a trip just to survive, boy
 Back to Dungaree high
